Seymour, An Addition
Convenient location
Walkability 5.9/10·Schools 4.0/10
Late afternoon here hits just right—when the light softens on the brick facades and you can actually move through the streets without rushing. This platted addition sits in the heart of Southeast End, where downtown Grand Rapids is less than 10 minutes away but you're still on a neighborhood scale. Oakdale Gardens is a short walk, and there are 10 parks within a mile, which matters if you actually use them. The Rapid stops essentially at your door, and a grocery run is about a mile—the kind of distance that's walkable or a quick drive depending on your mood. Restaurants cluster nearby too: six within a mile, with a coffee shop equally close. If boating appeals to you, Butterworth Park's launch is under three miles out. River City Scholars Charter Academy serves the area. The median home here runs around $275,000, and homes tend to move fast—15 days on the market is the norm in this part of town, which says something about the draw.
